In the season and podcast finale of Asia In The Shadows, I explore a slightly obscure case from the motherland, the Philippines. The case takes place in Narra, Palawan, a place that never before made any headlines up until that humid month in July 2004. 
I do not want to give too much away but please be warned as the content of this episode can be truly triggering. The title is kinda giving it away already, so please make sure you are prepared for that.
Listen now to the very last episode of Asia In The Shadows before it goes on an indefinite hiatus.

The Lunar New Year celebrations in 2019 were supposed to be a joyous occasion especially in the Cao Family home. Daughter, 22-year-old Cao Mỹ Duyên, was home from university and was helping with the family business. On the 4th February, she headed over to a customer near her residence in Điện Biên. She was delivering chickens as per the order that was placed that same afternoon. Little did her family know, that would be the last time they’d see Duyên whose fate was sealed the moment she agreed to make that delivery.
